The meteorologist warned about the arrival of the old Indian summer in Central Russia.
An old Indian summer will come to Central Russia this week (October 4-10). The leading employee of the Phobos weather center Yevgeny Tishkovets announced this on his instagram.
“This will be a full season, called the old Indian summer with a characteristic real golden autumn,” wrote the forecaster.
What is Old Indian Summer?
Old Indian Summer is an unofficial term that Tishkovets used to designate a period of temporary warming in the fall, similar to the Indian summer.
Indian summer is popularly called a long period of warm and dry weather at the beginning of calendar autumn after rainy and rainy days. According to the meteorologist, the old Indian summer will also be characterized by predominantly sunny and dry weather with a temperature background corresponding to the climatic norm of early October (in Moscow, the average daytime temperature on October 1-10 is +6.9 … + 8.5 °).
Indian summer comes thanks to steady anticyclones. The old Indian summer this week, according to Tishkovets, will be established due to the dominance of the anticyclone of Scandinavian origin in central Russia.
What will the weather be like during the old Indian summer?
Tishkovets said that in Central Russia this week the air will warm up to +7 … + 12 ° during the day. At night, the temperature will tend to zero. On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, October 6-8, light frosts are possible.
The wind during the old Indian summer will be weak, with variable directions. Fog is possible in some places at night and in the morning.
When will the old Indian summer end?
The old Indian summer will last a week, until the end of the first decade of October. Then, as the meteorologist notes, cyclonic activity will gradually intensify. Because of this, it will become more cloudy, the likelihood of precipitation will increase, and the temperature will begin to drop rapidly. Closer to the 20th of October, the first wet snow is not excluded.
